A member asked:
Is it against any rules for a family physician to wear a n95 if they have a beard?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I am not aware of any such rule. It is possible depending on the amount and length of facial hair that tight seal of N95 may be difficult to obtain. We should not be deciding someone's appearance. N95 can be adjusted up to a point. home stitched mask may cover everything near face providing protection.
